How the codes work

Most codes are the Code of Federal Regulations part number: 16 CFR 1219 (full-size cribs) is 1219.
For toys, every applicable section of the ASTM F963 toy standard is listed on its own: small objects, section 4.6, is 4.6.
In the bulk CSV, codes go in Lab {#} Citation Codes, separated by semi-colons.
CPC = Children's Product Certificate. GCC = General Certificate of Conformity. Which codes go on which.
Codes ending in zero get mangled by Excel: 4.10 becomes 4.1.

CPSC also lists six entries where no certificate is required, and 53 testing exclusion codes.
